This is an amazing school! I arrived in late 2013, and I graduated in the class of 2017. My years here were magical and life changing. I become a more competent and responsible person, and the opportunities I received in the program were phenomenal. If you want your child to succeed, then the best school for them to attend is this one. I just finished writing my book Comedy Is No Joke! The Stand-up Comics' Guide to Success, and I am moving my comedy show to LA later this September. I wouldn't have been able to accomplish these feats without the knowledge I gained at Delphian.

Before coming to Delphian I knew nothing about where life would take me.
I thought of myself as a pessimistic person. I was overwhelmed with books and lectures. ​I knew I could do so much more, but I couldn’t. I started at the Delphian School four years ago and finally had hope. Delphian has been a journey. It was a journey not like any other journey. It’s been a process and a discovery. I was shown not only the world, but how I could fit into it. ​It’s about challenging yourself a little bit more when you are too tired to stand up. It’s about providing encouragement when you fall. It’s about alerting you when you are lost. It’s about waking you up before everything is too late.
​Delphian an ​has been the shining star in my life! I will be forever grateful.
​Yesterday, I was a student from the Delphian School. Today, I am a proud graduate. I would recommend Delphian to anyone.

Before I came to Delphian, I was studying in a private school in Taiwan. Everyone was focusing on testing and getting into a good high school. The only subjects that I was good at was English and Mandarin. I did terrible on all the other subjects. Whenever I didn’t do well on my tests or exams, my teachers and my parents got mad. Each report card ended in hour of arguing with my parents.

I’m currently a junior at the Delphian School. I really like Delphian because of its educational system. Delphian is a proficiency-based education so a big part of it is hands-on projects and really understanding everything we study before moving on. It gives students a lot of project opportunities and opportunities to experience real life as part of the education.

My favorite part about campus life is that everyone is a huge family. There’s no bullying or anything like that at the school. Students are really friendly with everyone and the staff members are also really nice and caring.
